摘要

Conjugate addition of benzylic diphenyldithioacetal anions to enantiomerically pure (-)-(2R)- and (+)-(2S)-2-(benzyloxy)-2, 5-dihydro-4-[3, 4-(methylenedioxy) benzoyl] furan (2r and 2s) gave complete lignan skeletons of the dibenzylbutane class. Desulfurization followed by hydrogenolysis and, when appropriate, oxidation gave the title enantiomerically pure (> 99% ee) lignans 45-50 in 24-35% overall yields from 2r and 2s.
